Vacation Videos!

M and I on our vacation last week. I took a couple of videos on the trip–one in Salt Lake City and the other at Arches National Park down in southern Utah in Moab. Road trip!

Weirdly poptastic fountain and book signed and available in Utah–supplies are limited!

Here’s the road trip video. We had a great time even though it was crazy windy! Plus, ideas were churning for new alien landscapes. I feel a futuristic (shifter?) coming on!

You Are a Bengal Cat


You look wild, but deep down, you’re really quite sweet.
You are curious about the world around you, and you love to explore.

You liked to swim and climb trees as a kid… and probably still do!
You are confident and energetic. You are ready to take on the world.

Where The Wild Things Are

This book is, hands down, no question, my favorite book of all time. It could be because the artwork is awesome. It could be that I was a young wild thing as a munchkin myself. It could be because my aunt read it to my brothers and me every night before bed, and I can still hear her voice in my head every time I read the battered, cover-falling-off old copy.

And now they’re making a movie of it. I’m half-intrigued to see what they do with it, and half-horrified that they’re going to mess with my favorite book this way.

Here’s the trailer. It doesn’t tip me one way or the other on the intrigue-horror scale. I’ll just have to put my big girl panties on and go out there and see it for myself.

Four Stars!

This just in…On The Prowl got an awesome review from Romantic Times!

I’m so excited! Check it out!

ON THE PROWL
by Crystal Jordan

RT Rating:
Category: EROTICA
Publisher: APHRODISIA
Published: May 2009
Type: Erotic Romance (Paranormal, Anthology)

Jordan’s three interwoven stories are about a powerful panther shapeshifting family and each sibling’s search for his or her predestined mate. The author is a master worldbuilder, and the abundant sex scenes compliment the plot and characters. One cannot help but fall in love with these large, dangerous, hot cats!

Summary: Now that Antonio is the head of his pride, his nonshifting lover, Solana, dares him to “Claim Me” as his forever mate. In “Take Me,” Antonio’s elder sister, Andrea, finds the love of her life in the most unusual place. And Antonio’s twin brothers, Diego and Ricardo, respond with their hearts and their bodies when their shared mate, Isabel, begs them to “Need Me.” (APHRODISIA, May, 304 pp., $13.95)

You Are a Bullmastiff


You are confident, reasonable, and very calm. Nothing shakes you up.
It’s likely that you were a bit wild when you were younger, but you’ve gotten that out of your system.

The only time you get aggressive is when someone tries to threaten or harm you in some way.
There’s a little bit of wolf underneath all that sheep’s clothing!
